Webb gets the start against Houston tomorrow in the first game of the series.

I'm a big 'Stros fan so I look forward to what should be an exciting series.

Why in the world was Tracy sent on that hit? That wasn't even close...

Because Webb was up next. You take your chances with a bad throw. I don't understand why Webb was not telling Chad to slide.

Young is having a really good game, and he has desperately needed it.

Diamondbacks win 3-1. Too bad Webb gave up that run in the 9th.

:sad: I'm going to go out on a limb and say Webb is a pretty OK pitcher.
Cy Young, baby. But as a 3rd base coach, he needs work. I saw the replay while at a restaurant, and I didn't see him give the slide signal at all.

Betcha he won't do that again.

Young really showing off his power. Now if only he can hit more consistently. Good way to start off a series. What a streaky team.

Looks like a really good pitching matchup today as Hernandez takes on Oswalt.

I see in the box score Medders gave up another two home runs in one inning. So for the season, he has pitched 17 innings and has given up eight home runs. There has to be a better pitcher for the Sidewinders than Medders.

This offense is pathetic. How long can until there is some shakeup in the coaching staff? If Melvin is not in danger of losing his job, I would think Seitzer's job is in jeopardy.

I'm not sure how much of this is Seitzers fault. Melvin doesn't help matters by switching the lineups every game but at some point it's up to the players. The young guys need to start producing and that's the bottom line

My word, the Astros are horrendous of late. I think Berkman has Lou Gehrig's disease.
